Techbargains Reviews

Supertooth has been around for a little while now and they have made their presence known in the realm of Bluetooth speakers. Whether that is for in-car Bluetooth speakerphones or wireless speakers in the house which, by the way, is what we will be looking at today. This dapper fellow comes in 5 colors to fit any living space. The DISCO 2 can stream music from A2DP cell phones, tablets, computers and mp3 players. It also features the aptX protocol which helps keep the quality of the original audio files.

Main Features:

Bluetooth v4.0

Operating range: 30 ft

Low battery audio signal

A2DP streaming for music playback

2 hour charge time

Ni MH power pack

16 watt speakers

3.5mm stereo jack cable for non-Bluetooth devices

What We Liked:

Setup: Setup for Bluetooth devices are getting easier and easier as more and more devices proliferate the market. Paring is so simple my grandma could do it. For users without Bluetooth, do not be dismayed. The Disco comes with a 3.5 mm jack for attaching to your non Bluetooth device.

Design: The Disco 2 reminds me of something you might find in an executive's office. It is business minded and yet suitable for any home with the multitude of colors available. For this review, a multitude means five. The cloth was a nice touch and gave it that new age soft tone feel.

Sound Quality: Sound quality was worth the buy. It wasn't as bass filled as I had hoped with it being as big as it was but all other highs and mids levels were crisp and clear. It is on par with several of the other Bluetooth speakers on the market today.

Portability: It is Bluetooth -- what more can we say? You can take it anywhere. The bonus is that it will look good where ever you put it. Maybe even make where you put it look better too. The Disco 2 was made for improvised dinners and last minute parties. It isn't as heavy as it looks but it won't just fit in your purse or pocket either. Bluetooth enables the user to put the Disco 2 up to 30 ft away from the Bluetooth device. Plenty of space to roam if needed.

What We Didn't Like:

Bass: I have a feeling that this will be a "What We Didn't Like" topic for a while. It is hard to fit good bass into small speakers and have a good design. Coupled with price, I don't see this being fixed anytime soon. But when it does, we will be there to review it.

Our Verdict:

This dapper device was fun to review and managed to ooh and ahh us with its quality sound and nice aesthetics. It is just the right size for that impromptu party and fits just about anywhere. Needless to say, we were pleased with the Disco 2. Again, bass was the only letdown, as the price did not quite match the bass quality we were looking for. Coming in at about $100, weighing the cost of aesthetics and sound, we believe this to be a worthwhile product worthy of a living room table or outdoor patio.
